So for comparison, Dash decided to hop Twitter backstage and go through some of the mean tweets she got responding to her appearance. Unlike the Oscar crowd, who didn’t provide much response at all, the folks on Twitter were happy to dish out a little hatred towards Dash.

And that is what was so frustrating about her whole appearance there (and her comments). There is no conviction in what she even says. She is more or less just playing a role (not too convincingly) that basically is the only role she can get these days (given how much she has been orchestrated from the black community). I get the sense that all can do is try to smile through it but you can tell how much the level of vitriol and criticism bothers her no matter how much of front she tries to put on (I imagine she agreed to be involved in the Oscar sketch thinking it would be a good way to diffuse the tension of her recent comments but instead only fanned the flames)….

She’s 50, I believe. So to be clear, if she wasn’t a celebrity and, say a new coworker, and she told you she was 50, you would be taken aback because you think she looks… Five years older than that?
What a bizarre statement. Generally, an appearance that looks to be five years older than the person’s actual age really isn’t substantial when the person is fifty years old. I mean does a person in their mid 50s look that different from a person entering their 50s?

And, of course, it’s not even accurate because she looks pretty good for her age, I think most people would agree.
